Hi, This summer, I am going to be revamping Python's test suite. Major things I plan to do include - rewriting regrtest.py to be a simple test driver - implementing CPython only decorators - moving skipping data to the tests themselves (perhaps with decorators) - completing the transition to unittest/docttest - removing old testsupport crud (like verify) - increasing the testing of unicode inputs and fixing bugs the appear - write new testing docs for newbie contributors - merging related tests - reorganizing the tests into separate directories
Other suggestions?
Cool! I can help you with some info which tests are unlikely to pass on top of ie pypy (and we decided those are implementation-specific, but I might be wrong).
Cheers, fijal
